MrBeast’s close friend and team member, Chris Tyson, is now officially Kris Tyson. Kris, who had made it clear that she could be referred to by any pronouns, has even changed her pronouns to she/her. This has been made official through her Twitter account.
Kris had revealed in April that she was going through Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Numerous controversies followed. Reports at a point suggested that she was fired from MrBeast’s channel for being transgender. However, none of those reports were true. She used to clarify it all and keep her fans in the loop throughout the transition.
Three months after her HRT announcement, she finally transitioned. She has even officially changed her pronouns.

Her dating life, however, remains a mystery. Since separating from her wife, she was rumored to be dating fellow MrBeast friend Karl Jacobs. That went nowhere as Kris cleared the air about it. Later, she was even linked with F1NN5TER. However, those links have also faded.
On the other hand, for Kris, this is a time to find herself rather than someone else. In an interview, she opened up about how happy she is with her transition.

Kris was interviewed by Anthony Padilla where she opened up about her transitional journey. She revealed many stories about how MrBeast, aka Jimmy Donaldson, and her other friends have been supportive of her throughout. Kris even claimed that she feels like she can do anything now.
She said, “It really feels like, for the first time, like, ‘I can do anything’. I can be who I want to be. I can create a channel if I want to, I can write a book if I want to, I can maybe produce a film if I want to.”

Kris has changed her name on Twitter and Instagram. She has received love from her fans who are excited for her to start a new chapter.
